Wire Information

Below is information on the types of wire available for cables on this website to help you make a more informed decision for your purchase. I have included a review/description of many of the wire types as well as a comparison chart at the bottom of the page. Some of the information supplied here is subjective and not necessarily supplied as fact. The information in the chart is up-to-date and accurate, to the best of our ability.

Mogami

Mogami wire is without a doubt the finest wire we work with.
The majority of studios we work with use Mogami wire. It is the
higher-priced of the wire we sell, but far worth the price in
quality. We think it's even better than Monster cable, for
a far better price. Mogami cable is very flexible, durable, and
sounds excellent. If you want what the real studios use, choose
Mogami.

Horizon

Ok, so you say "Mogami sounds great but we are on
a tight budget." Well then, we can gladly recommend Horizon
cable. We have used it in studios with smaller budgets, and
musicians use it all over the world. Horizon wire is great wire
with a budget price. Horizon wire is flexible, durable, and
sounds great- the next best thing to Mogami. If you want the high
quality budget-wire that millions of others use, choose
Horizon.

Gepco

We are starting to add Gepco cables to our site. I cannot claim to know the entire Gepco line yet but I am very happy with what I have seen so far. We currently have available several coax cables that are top quality with incredible specs. We hope to be adding many more Gepco wire options on the site soon. If you are searching for a specific Gepco wire to be built into a cable, please let us know.

Carol

Carol Brand wire
is what we turn to when our other manufactures don't make a
specific cable. They make very high quality products that I think
are superior to other manufacturers' similar wire types. On
our site we currently offer our power cables and RG-6 cables with
Carol Brand wire. We have used it for years on our installations
for CAT-5, coax, power, speaker cables, and more. We have been
very happy with Carol Brand products and I think you will
too.
